Just tried it. It didn't work.

I still get "not a valid block device".

dmesg doesn't tell me anything, either. Just the usual:

CS5530: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 92
.
.
hda: GCR-8521B, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

Is there any more info I can provide? Or is there anything else I can
try?

Cheers,

Felipe
